Dear friends,

TOday i got my m3 73 and i am very happy. I couldnt explore it yet but first day was enough to understand how superb it is.

But 73 keys is uglier then 61. I wish they would paint it to the same color of the module like they did for 61.

I will write a review in a short time.

Congrats!

Ugly? Are you referring to those cheese blocks on either side of the module?

yes those cheese blocks are ugly and also not painted as it is on 61

Cheese blocks?

Wow, that synth has had a labotomy!

Interesting pic. Thanks

From the pictures it appears that the M3-73 and M3-88 do not have painted "cheeks" while the M3-61 does. I assume this is because the M3-73/88's panels are removable, so a painted surface could be subject to scratches.

I had never noticed there was a difference before.

The M3-61 doesn't have painted cheese blocks (cheeks). They're part of the frame, which is molded in white plastic.

i wish 73 and 88 keys were also white plastic. It looks better and more finished. I will paint it my self maybe:P

and m3-73 doesn't have a plate under it like 61, you can pass your hand thru it without the module ! !

I wanted to put a usb key in this place and of course I can't with the 73

That plate is the bottom panel showing through. What's underneath the 73? Is it an open frame like the Radias?
